Run, Run, Run

That is my plan right now! I have decided to start running again.  You might remember I have a back injury I have been babying for about a year now.  I am trying to take the running easy.  This week I started and hope to provide you with an exercise re-cap at the end of each week.  I signed up for Daily Mile to help me keep track and keep myself accountable.  Find me here: http://www.dailymile.com/people/marshalmoore#ref=tophd  if you are on Daily Mile! 

This week I started easy and just did a 1.37 mi run from our house.  It is dark now, so I wanted to stay on the main road.  This limited me a bit in how far I could go.  This is a great route, with a good slow up hill and returning the down hill.  I decided to try the local City gym last night and use the Treadmill.  I was able to wait until my daughter was in bed, so none of that GUILT!  I ran 2.20 miles! It felt good and I probably could have gone more, but I told my husband I would only be 30 minutes!  Today, I have the day off of work, so my daughter and I are joining my mother and grandmother for a walk.  I think the walk will be a good break for my legs, they were a bit sore last night! 

I hope to get to where I can do some 5K raises this spring and summer.  Maybe eventually a 1/2 marathon.  All I kept thinking last night was "how do these people do marathons?"
